I’m not an Apollo user but still quit reddit because of the disgusting handling not only of third party app but also of the mods and users. Reddit isn’t deserving any of my time anymore. So far I’m enjoying lemmy and hope it stays free of corporate greed!
I do not understand how there is no mention of the fediverse.
Yup, that's me. I'm still a little surprised at how easy (thanks Spez) it actually was for being such a heavy consumer of Reddit. Doing Christian wrong like that, as well as the many popular 3rd party apps and their loyal users, just didn't sit right with me. Spez chose the nuclear option, instead of actually working with and potentially helping to grow the site along with 3rd party devs, so this is the resulting fallout. He asked for it, so he got it.
Apollo for Lemmy when?
Memmy has been giving me Apollo vibes and has made the transition way easier
I deleted my Reddit account right after I noticed Apollo stopped working. Mastodon and Kbin are filling the void nicely and I find I don't miss Reddit at all.
I’m here too having signed up this morning. I am still hoping for a good iOS mobile experience. Either way I’m here for the long run. I’m done with Reddit.
An iOS app (Mlem) is currently under development. If you want to be an early adopter, you can test it already. I guess it will be available in the app store sooner or later.
Have Memmy closed their beta testing sign up now? I’ve been testing Mlem and Memmy for a couple of weeks and wefwef for a few days. Memmy is streaks ahead of the other two right now. I can’t see myself choosing Mlem over Memmy ever. Wefwef has potential but has understandably been buggy as hell. I’m looking forward to Artemis but it’s invite only beta testing at the moment.
I don’t know about their current state, other than that those apps aren’t currently available in the app store. I don’t feel like being a beta tester, so I’ll just wait until the official release date . For the time being, browsing Lemmy with Safari has been good enough. I mean, it’s way better than Reddit, so I’m not complaining at all. Some people said that they would use Reddit on a mobile browser. I tried that a few times and it was just garbage in so many ways. Lemmy, on the other hand, is perfectly fine even on a browser.
used to use reddit sync.. deleted my reddit account now. shame, it was a really active site, but this is a good equivalent and it won't get spezzed or eloned. I can just move server if I feel like it.
Same here. But fortunately LJ is working on a Sync for Lemmy, excited for that. I use Connect for Lemmy right now which has a similar UI
I’m a part of that group. I see 24 people wish I’d kick rocks haha, I get it.
Look, I’m sure most of the refugees agree with me. If we don’t fit in we’ll leave.
So far I’m digging Lemmy. I wish it was more active, but if it’s gonna grow it will.
It broke my heart to leave Reddit after 15-16 years, but it’s not that same place any more any way.
So, hello fellow Apollo refugees.
I used reddit is fun but it's the same story. Literally 15 years using that website daily.
Same deal, we both got fucked by Reddit.
What sucks is I’m sure you’d have paid to stay on RIF and I know I would have paid to stay on Apollo.
What a bummer that dickshit spez couldn’t see past his own nose.
Done with Reddit. Lemmy is the way
Let's be realistic here, there's very little chance that a significant portion of users migrate out. It's cool. We don't have to obsess about our ex.
I haven't willingly been back since the 12th. Shithead CEOs aren't going to profit off my contributions. If everyone did the same it would evaporate overnight
I got a Reddit notification for this post while browsing this post. Time to turn off notifications!
This is a most excellent place for technology news and articles.
